Still Festering

Awesome film last night - "Le Grand Voyage" (a France-Morocco coproduction). The tale of a journey to Mecca from France - with the modern son imprisoned in the car with his traditional Muslim father. The concept is not new, but it was handled so well.

The people in Venice liked this film, too. Last weekend it won the Gold Lion for Best First Feature Film.


I wish my friends the same strength, courage and luck on their journey to the Mecca of the Black Towers.

Film Festering

I was pretty happy to hear yesterday afternoon that we were going to get a chance at work to get some free tickets to the Film Festival. Of course, most of the films are showing either tonight or tomorrow night. Not much notice, but since I'm not one of the "married with kids living in the burbs" drones, I'm OK with that.

Today I hear that the VPs have already taken their pick of the tickets and have been passing around their leftovers to the managers.

Reminds me of the song my dad used to sing to us about the fox going out in the middle of the night to get a goose. He and his fox wife dine on the best bits..."And the little ones chewed on the bones-ios".

Yep, can't wait to get my chance to go see the cheery little flick about the genocide in Rwanda.
